Abstract:-Agriculture plays vital role in the development of agricultural country and agriculture is the back bone of India. In India about 70% of population depends upon framing and one third of the nation’s capital comes from framing. Issues about the agriculture have been always hindering the development of the country. The perception of smart agriculture is flattering a truth as it involves different models for the development of crop at different stages. In traditional agriculture, cultivation of plants, vegetables, fruits will be used to sustain and enhance human life. In our nation cultivation is much reduced due to lack of interest, scarcity of agriculture land water and some framers with their own interest still cultivating the land at present. But that was also yields to very less production due to lack of awareness about the dry lands, no usage of pesticide timely and suitable crops for the land. Hence now days the smart agriculture has come into the depiction globally that helps in increasing and the productivity and solving issues caused due to the critical environment factors. This paper surveys about the using of IoT sensors with the cloud environment for testing and monitoring the soil. Testing the soil type and quality consists of many tests, such as bulk density test, respiration test, moisture test and also it is important to check the water quality. In viewing of the results obtained by the above tests the device suggests the crop for the framer and it also helps him for the maintenance of the crop.
